When I arrived I could already see that it would be an amazing time. My family walked in and we sat at a table and they welcomed us. The decoration in there was fantastic and it was very welcoming. The staff gave us the menus and they then gave us time decide what we would like to have. The staff are very friendly and kind. I ordered the home made garlic bread with melted mozzarella cheese on the top. It arrived and it looked amazing and it tasted even better. I would recommend it. For the main I got the margherita pizza and it was the best pizza I have ever ate. With the children’s meal I got a children sized ice cream and you could choose your flavour and there were 7 to choose from. I chose chocolate. This wonderful place is highly recommended for you.

We were greeted with, we are very busy so you may have to wait! why take the booking then? Mrs F who appeared to be the owner was patronising and rude at best. My husband and I ordered Carbonara, my husband enquired about the ingredients and was met with some rubbish about the Sicilian way not being the way! (FYI, we are connoisseur of Carbonara, living next door to two Italians chefs for 10 years). Garlic Bread, the portion size was described to us by Mrs F using her hands to indicate it was large, we ordered two but they were medium so we had to order two more, which did not go down well second portions were tasteless. We ordered several small salad portions, tomatoes, and mozzarella, drizzled with oils, again tasteless. My Bestie's pizza was dry and tasteless, she took it home for the dog. We asked if we could bring in the birthday cake Mrs. Fs responded after you order our desserts! So we didn't! No one had alcohol and it was £25. each. When the bill came Mrs F made an aggressive explanation about the tip being shared with all the staff. All in All, we felt very unwelcome and will not be going back. BTW The wooden stairs as you go in are slippery so be careful when you enter.

Firstly and importantly the owner needs to do something about the outside stairs as they are slippery and dangerous. If this is left someone will have a nasty accident and she will be liable. So take this advice and fix the problem. Secondly the owner needs to do something about the chairs they are far too low and offering customers cushions does not rectify the problem. Thirdly we found the wine list very poor, two whites available, one house and the other Pino Grigio. Surely you can make the wine list a little more extensive by adding a nice quality white wine!! The food was average at best, the pizza my husband had was hard and very difficult to cut through. The risotto was not memorable and was served up in a basic bowl, there was definitely a lack of presentation. The kitchen area was untidy and unkept and looked like a storeroom. For me the best thing about this restaurant was it’s staff who were warm and friendly. Definitely a disappointing experience.

Absolute pleasure to celebrate our anniversary at Filippo's. Ms. Filippo was friendly, attentive, and enthusiastic. The customer service was fantastic and the food was even better. I don't say it lightly, but this is the most authentic Italian cuisine I have eaten in the UK, no doubt as a result of the Sicilian chef. Everything we ate was fresh and made to order. We also enjoyed the best tiramisu I have experienced outside of Italy. All of the above is made better knowing that this is an independent, family owned restaurant. We will definitely be going back.

I came here with friends! As I'm Italian, they decided it was a good place to go to and eat dinner! Mrs. Filippo was really friendly and attentive and so was the other young lady who served us! The food was like being home in Italy 🇮🇹! I highly recommend coming here as it's the best Italian food I've eaten in a very long time outside of Italy! I will definitely be going back to try other dishes that are on the menu! :)

The food was great. Pizzas were huge and hand made to perfection. The wine was lovely, really recommend the Sicilian house white, even if it’s a bit too easy to drink! Dessert was great too! The best part was the service though, very attentive and they went out of their way when realising we had left items behind, going out of their way to search the bars of Horsham to find us and return them! Thoroughly recommend!

We discovered this family-run restaurant quite recently and feel it deserves some serious recognition. We have been back several times already, mainly due to the extremely high quality food. Every dish we have tried so far has been sublime. It is evident that the quality and freshness of ingredients is of the highest priority here. My personal favourite is the Rustic pizza with addied pineapple, but my wife and children have sampled numerous other pizza and pasta dishes, not to mention the deep fried cheese starters, and the consensus is that this is some of the best food in town. We will be back!

the food here is very delicious, has the essence of a nostalgic and fresh homecooked meal that can be hard to find at other restaurants. no pretentiousness, just friendly attentive service and a wide range of wholesome dishes to choose from! I had the lasagna and could see it had just come fresh baked from the oven, still bubbling in a fragrant sauce. my husband and I both enjoyed our dinners and the desserts as well. would come here again!

I went to Filippo's for my Birthday with my family and had a great time. The waiting team were really friendly and really made us feel welcome, they'd even put up a happy birthday banner. We went a little bit over board with a 3 course meal (really two is enough). For starters we had olives, plain garlic bread, mushroom, and mozzarella garlic bread and some white bait. The garlic bread was which was light and crispy. For mains we had a pizza Mediterranean (mozzarella, olives and rocket on top), spaghetti pescatore (spaghetti with muscles and clams) and a Pizza Boscaiola (mozzarella, pepperoni, bacon, mushrooms & garlic). The rocket was light and crispy, and the clams in the spaghetti tasted great. For desert we had cheese cake, the special which was chocolate fudge cake with chocolate ice-cream (specifically chosen by my brother), tiramisu and vanilla ice cream. I can't really speak for the other deserts as I didn't try them, I did find the soft cheese part of the cheese cake very tasty but I'm not exactly sure why. Another good thing about Filippos is the fact their restaurant is all one long alley, which means despite being busy, it never tends to get to loud. All in all, a good meal out. Starters £5-£10, mains £13-£20, deserts £5-10, wines £25+

I am taking the time to write this review to ensure no one else wastes their money / time visiting Filippo's and also to save anyone leaving a restaurant so upset by how someone can speak to you ... I visited on Saturday evening with 3 other friends. We are all busy working mums who rarely have a night out for dinner. We chose Filippo's as we always seem to walk past and apart from 1 friend, the rest of us had never been inside. The decor is really disappointing as you go in. From the outside, greens and reds and looks like it's going to be a beautiful family, run Italian inside. However, you walk in to chairs covered with cheap, ugly covers...you sit down and sink into the chairs which makes them very uncomfortable. The cutlery and glasses are cheap looking and paper napkins. We booked a table for 6 but due to 2 last min drop out's out of their control we were down to 4. This is where is all went wrong .... The lady who runs the restaurant asked if the other 2 were coming, we said sadly no and her reply with a rude undertone was 'well it would've been nice to know before now' (we had only just found out ourselves !!!). We were very nice about it offered to separate the tables to make sure she could use it for someone else but she made it very obvious from that point we weren't in her good books. She came to take our order and we decided not to go for starters (so we had enough room for pud). She was very pushy about us having starters and even more so when a friend ordered the lasagne with her once again, rude undertone comment being "you should definitely try our starters because your lasagne is cooked from fresh and will take at least 25mins - we don't just put shove it in the oven like all the other restaurants around here" - no...we still don't want starters, thank you! Food arrived, and don't get me wrong it was very tasty but the attitude from the lady will forever put me and everyone I tell going back to this restaurant!! We ordered desserts, and again, very delicious. The lady was again very pushy on us having coffee's, but we didn't need anything else. The bill arrived (£170 for 4 of us with only 3 glasses of wine on there) with a £16.49 tip on - the lady brought the bill over and explained the tip was split between waiting and kitchen staff so if we have it in our heart to leave that would be good - we will leave a tip if we feel we want to, you don't need to quite put it like this. We just wanted to get out of there so just agreed between us to pay it and go ... oh how I wish we hadn't done that! We split the bill between us but we owed a friend some money so her bill only came to £6 - as she went to tap her card the lady pulled the machine away and very rudely said "I am not taking £6 on card, the fee's are too high and I don't take less than £10 on the machine" ... my response was, what are your card fee's, we'll pay the £6 + the card fee's because surely they're not £4!! (baring in mind we'd already left the £16.49 tip!!!!). In the end she wasn't giving in, so I said we'd go and get the cash and be back. To which she very rudely replied with "ok...well what are you going to leave here so I know you will come back" .... 1. it was £6 and 2. we are 4 x 35 + year olds who were out for a nice evening, why would we then go and do a runner for £6!! We decided 2 would go and get the money and the other 2 would stay put she she knew they would return. It then dawned on us we had paid the tip, so she could take it from there. So I politely told her this was our intention and she turned around and said 'well if that's how you feel about the service you received, you obviously don't have it in your heart to leave the full tip' ... my reply "the food was delicious, but your attitude is absolutely appalling" .... There, that's my detailed review of the absolutely terrible service we received from the lady running the restaurant. We all walked away shocked and sad that someone could impact on our evening so much. Just to note, the 2 other young waiting staff were very polite and this doesn't reflect on them.

Came in unplanned with friends after deciding we felt like having an Italian. Nice place to sit, the people there are very nice. The food was amazing. I had Mozzarella in Carrozza as a starter, which was very tasty. Spaghetti alla Carbonara as my mains (with some garlic bread to go with it), again brilliant. I find Carbonara in other restaurants as being rather oily, this however was just perfect. For pudding I had Pannacotta, which I never had befoe but will have again. I no hesitation in giveing 5 stars.

The food at Filippo’s is outstanding. We have been twice (once very recently and previously about a year ago or more) and it’s great to see the standard has not slipped. The staff are so lovely and attentive, you can tell they are passionate about the food. I had bruschetta to start (really tasty) and my partner had mussels in a tomatoey sauce (I was sceptical as only had white wine sauce before, but it was so good). My linguine ai Gamberoni was absolutely incredible, the best pasta I’ve had for a while, I don’t know of anywhere else nearby that freshly makes authentic Italian dishes like this that are full of beautiful flavour. My partner had the risotto which was also delicious. My only criticism is the wine list is very limited. Thank you, we will definitely be back.

We were visiting my fathers parents for my father in laws birthday and they treated us to a meal at Filippo’s. We are vegan and so my mum in law called in advance to ask if they had vegan options. They didn’t but said they would buy in some vegan cheese and some fruit for dessert. When we ordered we were told we could have whatever we wanted from the menu and they would make it vegan. They couldn’t have been any more accommodating or flexible with our requests. And the food was delicious! To top it all they put up and Happy Birthday banner and bought out Tiramisu with a candle in while we all sang happy birthday. We had such a great night and made a wonderful memory!

I don't want to insult the people of Horsham's intelligence but I do not understand how this restaurant is rated anything close to 4+ I ordered a bottle of Peroni which cost £7 for a standard 330ml bottle which is beyond extortionate and a pizza with bacon and pepperoni. I'm not overstating by saying that the pizza that arrived was the equivalent of a £3 supermarket pizza with next to no flavour and pepperoni that you get out of a basic pizza making kit. The pizza was £16.95 so more towards the high end level of pizza prices but the quality level was worse than Domino's. Avoid or be ripped off, you choose.

We visited this restaurant on a Saturday night with high hopes given the number of fantastic reviews. We were all shocked at the quality of the pizza dishes we ordered. The meat was oily and cheap and the bases were similar to those you can buy in the supermarket. We usually try to support independent places but this was a real disappointment.

Tucked away in Horsham, with convenient access to parking at Piries Place, is Filippo’s Italian restaurant. We reserved ahead of time as we had seen from TripAdvisor some good reviews. Reservation process: Easy to reserve, head to their website and book yourself in, or available via google/the fork. Our Review: Front of house and service staff were attentive, making you feel welcome, taking coats to a nearby cloak room. The staff made a conscious effort to make themselves available. If you’re not careful they will try and upsell, though skilfully done and not tacky. A small but well thought out wine list, nothing but Italian wines to choose from here, not your Argentinian Malbec or New Zealand SB. Note: you are limited to having to buy bottles of their ‘branded’ wines and offer only glasses of ‘house’ wine. Starter: Sicilian olive mist & mozzarella in carrozza served with tomato sauce. The tomato sauce and mozzarella had a deep and rich flavour, making you want more and more. Main: The litmus test, Margherita pizza: A staple dish for most Italian restaurants, though this was in a class of its own and surpasses your run of the mill Italian chain restaurants. The base; a light crisp with doughy texture, no burns, peppered with pops of char and flavour from the stove. The marinara was light with great depth and fresh mozzarella of course. One of the best pizzas since visiting Italy! Second floor: A few minor details to improve on - use of linen instead of paper napkins, better quality cutlery required, mirrors off putting when eating - I’m sure this is used to make the cozy space feel more open. Chairs were too soft and didn’t offer much lumbar support, wanted to leave slightly early as a result. The above would better reflect the price point of the menu as a margherita with black olives will set you back £17. Other local family run Italian restaurants offer a Margherita for £12-£15. All that said, the food and service is the star here. To conclude: Service 5/5 Food 5/5 Value 4/5 Drinks menu 3/5 Ambience 2/5 Upstairs facilities & decor 2/5.

Good starters, nice wine and good service, but....awful pasta main course unfortunately. Also tired decor, bright lighting and music that was rather too loud/intrusive detracts from the potential atmosphere in the restaurant. Hadn't been for many years but saw the #1 rating on trip advisor and thought we would try again. We eat out in Horsham regularly and I would rate at least 6-8 restaurants in Horsham better than Fillipo's I'm afraid.

I really don't know where to start as it is utter disbelief what we as a family experienced this weekend for my mums birthday. 15 years ago this place was absolutely incredible, staff were polite, food was out of this world!.... oh how the whole place has changed.... We arrived a little late and was straight away confronted by the lady that every bad review is commenting on, stating that they had to turn other customers away - at 6pm!!!. I don't know about you, but restaurants aren't the busiest at that time in the evening? So we apologised (because we are polite people) and soon realised that there were many tables empty, so this was a lie. We sat down trying to forget about the start of the experience as it was my mums birthday, so didn't want to ruin it. It wasn't until we had our mains bought out that the evening took an even worse turn. My dad had a dish bought out that he didn't order, so politely asked for the dish he had originally ordered. The nice waitress in there took the meal away back to the kitchen, and it wasn't long until the rude one grabbed the original dish and stormed back out and started to bully him into having the dish that he didn't order. We then rightly asked for the correct dish again, and she then accused us of being rude! We were not rude in the slightest and never are! After all that, the food was dry, tasteless and not like it was before- much like the service. Please do NOT go here, you will waste your money, and leave there crying like my mum did on her special day. Utterly awful place!!!! Wish i could rate it 0*.

Excellent quality food. Fresh, fast, packed with authentic Italian flavour. Tried Pizza, Pasta and a variety of starters and really enjoyed everything. I’ve never had dessert as I’m always full up from the main. Good portions and rich flavours, especially for their seafood pasta which...

Really strange hostess experience. Not child friendly- host made comments as soon as we arrive for our 6 yr old saying not to put feet on the chair- which she hadn’t. Then when our girls went to the toilet the host made us go with...

Really charming restaurant. Fairly standard Italian fare but the thing that made it special was the fantastic service from the owner. We were really made to feel like we were family guests and they couldn’t do enough for us. I would definitely go back.

I've been to Filippo's numerous times primarily because it's good food and they have polite & friendly service. It is an authentic non franchised family run Italian restaurant meaning the food is freshly made by the chef/owner himself. I always have a pleasant dining experience...

Great little pizza restaurant tucked away off Piries Place horsham. Whitebait and garlic bread starters both very good. Pizzas lovely and made with home made dough. Home made cheese cake also delicious. Will definitely visit again.

Really lovely little Italian restaurant, service was quick but friendly, the food delicious. Due to a heatwave the restaurant was very warm, the staff coped very admirably with this although if it was hot for the customers it was probably extremely difficult for them but...

We met my wife's cousin and family for high tea/Diner at the Ask in Horsham. I would suggest that a pizza restaurant is in the very casual places to eat given that most consume pasta or posh cheese on toast which are not what you would call high end catering. We had a nice sized table to accommodate the 6 of us. It was good to see that the younger members can still have crayons and colouring sheets to amuse them before and between the arrival of the food. I remember my pasta being nicely cooked with all the pasta submerged in the sauce, there being nothing worse than hard, dried and slightly charred pasta as part of the eating experience, but this was just right. The younger members chose a starter pizza and ice-cream sundae which was just a step too far for one pair of pelican eyes. The staff were attentive considering the busy status of the restaurant and that it was busier than usual for a saturday evening as Horsham had it's fireworks the same evening we ate out. ASK is one of those idea family eating out venues judging by the numbers of families and small parties that were crowding the restaurant. We enjoyed the casual and relaxed atmosphere and the staff did their bit to smooth and speed things along which is important when younger diners are present.

Had two toasted panini meatballs was tasty but cheese and ham was very dry and bland- coffee for an Italian 🇮🇹 deli was not great.

Just awful. Terrible service, always late, pizza tastes like it’s been hanging around for ages (and it has, you can see that in the pizza tracker on the app). They now charge and unreasonable £2.49 for delivery and also won’t let you collect after a certain time, which makes no sense. If you call up to say your order is wrong, they don’t care, and are reluctant to refund - even if they agree they will say if there’s a slice gone you won’t get a refund. How are you meant to know it’s all bad unless you eat some?! Just overpriced crap. Avoid.
